Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious, clean, and warm, but the temperature was too hot despite being moved to another room. The decor inside was not the best and there was a lingering unpleasant smell that seemed like a leak from the toilet had been long ignored.
The hotel is ideally located for those wanting to be close to the Farnborough airfield and museum. The rooms were nice and clean, and the service was extremely friendly and helpful, especially during breakfast. The dining was lovely and well-served, offering hot and filling meals. However, the noise from the main road and airfield could be bothersome at times.
The hotel offers comfortable rooms, though slightly on the older side, with two curry houses nearby. The service was impeccable, even providing a 'Grab bag' for an early morning departure. The convenient location suited our visit well, though lacking information on nearby dining options. The dining experience was decent, with room for improvement in breakfast variety.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was ideal for me, close to the town center and within walking distance of the celebration I was attending. The service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to meet our needs. However, the dining options were limited and not very satisfying, and there were issues with the room comfort and amenities.
